How to prepare for a picnic?

First of all, always take a comfortable blanket or mat with you – the ground in the mountains can be damp, and comfort is key when it comes to having a nice picnic. It is also a good idea to bring a thermos of hot tea or coffee – even on warm days in the mountains it can be chilly, and a hot drink always improves your mood.

What food to take on a mountain picnic?

Try to pack your food in airtight containers. This will not only protect your snacks from insects, but will also prevent accidental spillage of food in your backpack. It is also worth thinking about variety – sandwiches, fruit, dried fruit, or maybe homemade cake? The more varied the picnic basket, the greater the joy of eating outdoors. Regardless of the snacks you choose, remember, so that they are not too heavy.

Don't forget about proper hydration. Mountain air and physical exertion contribute to dehydration, so always carry enough water with you. The golden rule here is: take more water to the mountains than you think you will need.

Planning a picnic in the mountains? Follow the (unwritten) rules!

When planning a picnic in the mountains, remember to approach nature responsibly.

  • First of all, never do not light fires outside designated areas – it’s dangerous for the forest and simply illegal. Instead, use official fire pits.
  • It is also very important keeping silence and peace. The mountains are a place where many people seek respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Respect this by avoiding loud behavior. Enjoying a picnic doesn't have to mean disturbing other tourists or wild animals.
  • Speaking of wild animals, remember that you are a guest in their home. Admire them from a distance, but do not try to approach them or feed them. This is not only a matter of your safety, but also the welfare of the animals themselves, whose natural behaviors can be disrupted by contact with humans.
  • It is also extremely important to keep your picnic area clean. Always take all rubbish with you – including food scraps that can attract wildlife. A good rule of thumb is to leave your picnic area in better condition than you found it.

A picnic in the Śnieżnik Massif is a great way to combine relaxation with discovering the beauty of our area. Whether you choose the terrace of a cottage in the Za górami za lasami settlement, a nearby clearing, a pass or a nearby reservoir – each of these places has a unique character.
